HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
HOW TO USE THIS MANUAL
Essential Information
Each time direction instructions (left/right or
forwards/backwards) about the vehicle are
given, these must be intended as regarding
an occupant in the driver's seat. Special
cases not complying with this rule will be
properly specified in the text.
The figures in this User Guide are provided
by way of example only: this might imply that
some details of the image do not correspond
to the actual arrangement of your vehicle.
In addition, the User Guide has been
conceived considering vehicles with the
steering wheel on the left side; it is therefore
possible that in vehicles with the steering
wheel on the right side, the position or
construction of some controls is not exactly
mirror-like with respect to the figure.
To identify the chapter with the information
needed you can consult the index at the end
of this User Guide.
Chapters can be rapidly identified with dedi-
cated graphic tabs, at the side of each odd
page. A few pages further there is a key for
getting to know the chapter order and the relevant symbols in the tabs. There is always
a textual indication of the current chapter at
the side of each even page.Symbols
Some vehicle components have colored
labels whose symbols indicate precautions to
be observed when using this component.
Refer to “Warning Lights and Messages” in
“Getting To Know Your Instrument Panel”
for further information on the symbols used
in your vehicle.
ROLLOVER WARNING
Utility vehicles have a significantly higher
rollover rate than other types of vehicles.
This vehicle has a higher ground clearance
and a higher center of gravity than many
passenger vehicles. It is capable of
performing better in a wide variety of off-road
applications. Driven in an unsafe manner, all
vehicles can go out of control. Because of the
higher center of gravity, if this vehicle is out
of control it may roll over when some other
vehicles may not.
Do not attempt sharp turns, abrupt maneu
-
vers, or other unsafe driving actions that can
cause loss of vehicle control. Failure to
operate this vehicle safely may result in a
collision, rollover of the vehicle, and severe
or fatal injury. Drive carefully.
Rollover Warning Label
Failure to use the driver and passenger seat
belts provided is a major cause of severe or
fatal injury. In a rollover crash, an unbelted
person is significantly more likely to die than
a person wearing a seat belt. Always buckle
up.

IMPORTANT NOTICE
ALL MATERIAL CONTAINED IN THIS
PUBLICATION IS BASED ON THE LATEST
INFORMATION AVAILABLE AT TIME OF
PUBLICATION APPROVAL. THE RIGHT IS
RESERVED TO PUBLISH REVISIONS AT
ANY TIME.
This User Guide has been prepared with the
assistance of service and engineering
specialists to acquaint you with the opera-
tion and maintenance of your new vehicle. It
is supplemented by a Warranty Information
Booklet and various customer-oriented docu -
ments. You are urged to read these publica -
tions carefully. Following the instructions
and recommendations in this User Guide will
help assure safe and enjoyable operation of
your vehicle.
After you have read the User Guide, it should
be stored in the vehicle for convenient refer -
ence and remain with the vehicle when sold.
The manufacturer reserves the right to make
changes in design and specifications, and/or
to make additions to or improvements in its
products without imposing any obligations
upon itself to install them on products previ -
ously manufactured. The User Guide illustrates and describes the
features that are standard or available as
extra cost options. Therefore, some of the
equipment and accessories in this publica
-
tion may not appear on your vehicle.
NOTE:
Be sure to read the User Guide first before
driving your vehicle and before attaching or
installing parts/accessories or making other
modifications to the vehicle.
In view of the many replacement parts and
accessories from various manufacturers
available on the market, the manufacturer
cannot be certain that the driving safety of
your vehicle will not be impaired by the
attachment or installation of such parts.
Even if such parts are officially-approved (for
example, by a general operating permit for
the part or by constructing the part in an offi -
cially approved design), or if an individual
operating permit was issued for the vehicle
after the attachment or installation of such
parts, it cannot be implicitly assumed that
the driving safety of your vehicle is unim -
paired. Therefore, neither experts nor official
agencies are liable. The manufacturer only
assumes responsibility when parts, which are
expressly authorized or recommended by the
manufacturer, are attached or installed at an authorized dealer. The same applies when
modifications to the original condition are
subsequently made on the manufacturer's
vehicles.
Your warranties do not cover any part that the
manufacturer did not supply. Nor do they
cover the cost of any repairs or adjustments
that might be caused or needed because of
the installation or use of non-manufacturer
parts, components, equipment, materials, or
additives. Nor do your warranties cover the
costs of repairing damage or conditions
caused by any changes to your vehicle that
do not comply with the manufacturers spec
-
ifications.
WARNINGS AND CAUTIONS
This User Guide contains WARNINGS against
operating procedures that could result in a
collision, bodily injury and/or death. It also
contains CAUTIONS against procedures that
could result in damage to your vehicle. If you
do not read this entire guide, you may miss
important information. Observe all Warnings
and Cautions.

GETTING TO KNOW YOUR VEHICLE
14
The emergency key allows for entry into the
vehicle should the battery in the vehicle or
the key fob become depleted. The emer-
gency key is also for locking the glove
compartment. You can keep the emergency
key with you when valet parking.
To remove the emergency key from the
keyless ignition key fob, slide the mechan -
ical latch at the top of the key fob sideways
with your thumb and then pull the key out
with your other hand.
To Unlock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the unlock button on the
key fob once to unlock the driver's door or
twice within five seconds to unlock all doors
and the liftgate.
All doors can be programmed to unlock on
the first push of the unlock button. Refer to
“Uconnect Settings” in “Multimedia” in the
Owner’s Manual for further information.
To Lock The Doors And Liftgate
Push and release the lock button on the key
fob to lock all doors and liftgate.
Request For Additional Key Fobs
NOTE:
Only key fobs that are programmed to the
vehicle electronics can be used to start and
operate the vehicle. Once a key fob is
programmed to a vehicle, it cannot be
programmed to any other vehicle.
NOTE:
Used batteries may be harmful to the envi -
ronment if not disposed of correctly. Always
dispose of used batteries by specialized
battery disposal container, or by taking used
batteries to an authorized dealer. Duplication of key fobs may be performed at
an authorized dealer. This procedure
consists of programming a blank key fob to
the vehicle electronics. A blank key fob is
one that has never been programmed.
NOTE:
When having the Sentry Key Immobilizer
System serviced, bring all vehicle keys with
you to an authorized dealer.

three operating modes. The three modes are
OFF, ON/RUN, and START.
NOTE:
If the ignition state/mode does not change
with the push of a button, the key fob may
have a low or depleted battery. In this situa
-
tion, a back up method can be used to
operate the ignition switch. Put the nose side
WARNING!
Push the Mechanical Key Release Button
only with the key fob facing away from
your body, especially your eyes and objects
that may be damaged, such as clothing. WARNING!
Always remove the key fobs from the
vehicle and lock all doors when leaving
the vehicle unattended.
For vehicles equipped with Keyless
Enter-N-Go — Ignition, always
remember to place the ignition in the
OFF mode.
